Montessori Catechesis
During the celebration of the Eucharist, our minds and hearts are turned towards Christ through our senses – we sing hymns, gaze at the crucifix, and hear the Word of God. Our physical movements – standing, kneeling and processing – tangibly reinforce our spiritual encounter with our transcendent God. In the same fashion, through the use of their senses and the practice of physical gestures, even very young children can enter more fully into the celebration of the liturgy and life in the church.
